The Marvel Cinematic Universe just keeps on releasing movie after movie, and next in line to be released isBlack Panther: Wakanda Foreverwhich will be the last movie to come out of the franchise for this year. All the promo and trailers have gotten MCU fans excited, who will be hoping for a worthwhile successor to the 2018 movie.
As well-known as it is, the original actor for T’Challa i.e Chadwick Boseman won’t be joining us in another Black Panther journey. He sadly passed away in 2020 after a 4-year long battle with colon cancer, which he was diagnosed with back in 2016. Fans will be hoping that Marvel can replicate the hype that Boseman’s T’Challa generated in 2018.

Fans Might Just Be Getting Two Black Panthers!
There is no direct successor to the amazing work that Chadwick Boseman did with Black Panther before his untimely death. But it’s expected by many fans that Letitia Wright’s Shuri will be taking on the mantle of the legendary superhero.
But recent developments may come as a surprise to fans of the character because they might reportedly be getting more than one person in the Black Panther suit this time round! A new 30-second TV spot released by Marvel Studios forWakanda Foreversuggests an entirely different protagonist count.
Right before the screen cuts to black in the spot, two Black Panther helmets are conveniently placed next to each other- the first one clearly belongs to Boseman’s T’Challa, while it’s unknown who will be donning the second mask. An unidentified character can be seen reaching for the second mask at the end.

It’s not likely that they’ll be replacing Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa, with some fans already suggesting that it would be a huge disrespect to the late actor. Regardless, Marvel can have its own way with this and might just be gifting fans with two Black Panthers in the upcoming movie, which would be quite the treat!
